We spend a lot of our lives looking for role models,advisers and teachers to guide us on our path.There is nothing 1 with this and,in fact,finding the right 2 at the right time can really help.However,it is important to realize that in the 3 of such a figure,we can 4 rely upon ourselves,because we carry 5 us everything we need to know to make 6 on our paths to self-realization.All 7 need to do is to let go of our belief that we need to 8 guidance.
The path of the spirit is like a journey with a 9 .Most of us know that achieving our goal only makes us 10 for a moment,and then the happiness passes 11 a new object of desire appears.Joy is a lifelong aspect of our inner selves and is not 12 us at any point.We needn’t travel to find it or imagine that it 13 only in the body of another.In fact,it is something we already 14 .
So when we find ourselves on our path,not knowing which way to turn and wishing for 15 ,we can turn to 16 .We may not 17 the right answer at fist,but if we simply ask,let go,and wait patiently,a(n) 18 will come.The more we practice this process and 19 it,the less we will look outside ourselves for guidance,for we will have 20 become our own teachers and guides.

There is a 1 accepted idea that we should drink about eight cups of water (two to three liters) per day 2 our food and other drinks.We are told about the functions of water and 3 it will improve our health.We know that without it we will die 4 .
It’s 5 to think that if a lack of water is bad for us then hydration(水合作用) must be 6 .It surely protects our skin,helps us think,and 7 our risk of getting an illness.We are regularly advised to drink more water:it clears skin,helps us relax and keeps our 8 ,but could drinking too much water be 9 ?
Drinking water doesn’t just come out of our taps 10 .It’s sold to us by the same clever people that sell us yogurts that probably don’t do us much good.And these companies 11 two to three liters of water per day.So is there any 12 to think it correct?
The truth is this—people in 13 climates who are not doing too much physical exercise do need around six to eight cups of water per day but that can be 14 in food,alcohol or other drinks.There is no evidence that adding the eight cups of water to everything else we drink will do us any good and it 15 do us harm.
But the great thing is that just like a top-level athlete,we don’t need to worry about exactly what that total daily requirement is 16 our bodies will sort it out for us.If we drink too much we pee (尿) it out.If we drink too little we get 17 and pee less.It’s all well-controlled in the same way as our 18 of oxygen is well-controlled.
Saying that we should drink more water than our bodies 19 is like saying that we should consciously breathe more often than we feel like because if a little oxygen is good for us then more must be better.Like most things in life there’s a 20 amount—not too little and not too much.

1.B 我們花費(fèi)一生中大量的時(shí)間尋找榜樣、顧問(wèn)和老師來(lái)指導(dǎo)我們?nèi)松姆较颉Ｊ聦?shí)上,這樣做沒(méi)有錯(cuò)。在適當(dāng)?shù)臅r(shí)候找到適當(dāng)?shù)娜苏娴臅?huì)對(duì)我們有很大幫助。根據(jù)后文可知答案為B項(xiàng)。A項(xiàng)“有幫助的,有益的”;C項(xiàng)“熟悉的”;D項(xiàng)“受歡迎的,流行的”。
2.A 前文提到的role models,advisers and teachers可知,這些都是要尋找的人,所以答案為A項(xiàng)。
3.D 然而,重要的是,即便沒(méi)有這樣的人,我們也可以放心地依靠我們自己。因?yàn)槲覀儽旧砭邆湮覀冎赖囊磺?從而讓我們?cè)趯?shí)現(xiàn)自我的過(guò)程中不斷取得進(jìn)步。由兩句中間的However可知,前后句為轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,所以該句強(qiáng)調(diào)在沒(méi)有這些人的情況下我們?cè)撛趺崔k。答案為D項(xiàng)absence“缺席,不在”。
4.A 根據(jù)第3題解析可知答案為A項(xiàng)safely“安全地,放心地”。B項(xiàng)“感興趣地”;C項(xiàng)“緊張地”;D項(xiàng)“秘密地,背地里”。
5.C 根據(jù)第3題解析可知答案為C項(xiàng)within“在……內(nèi)部”,強(qiáng)調(diào)自身存在或具有某種特征或性質(zhì)。
6.B 根據(jù)第3題解析可知答案為B項(xiàng)。考查固定短語(yǔ)make progress“取得進(jìn)步”。這里強(qiáng)調(diào)不依賴他人,要靠自己才能在實(shí)現(xiàn)自我的過(guò)程中取得進(jìn)步。
7.A 我們需要做的就是摒棄這種凡事都要尋求別人指導(dǎo)的觀念。作者通篇文章都在論述我們?nèi)绾我揽孔约簛?lái)實(shí)現(xiàn)自我的成長(zhǎng),所以答案為A項(xiàng)。
8.C 根據(jù)第7題解析可知答案為C項(xiàng)seek“尋找,搜尋”。A項(xiàng)“拒絕”;B項(xiàng)“提供,出價(jià)”;D項(xiàng)“提供,供給”。
9.B 精神追求的道路就像擁有目標(biāo)的旅行。由下文achieving our goal可知答案為B項(xiàng)goal“目標(biāo)”。
10.A 我們多數(shù)人都知道,實(shí)現(xiàn)我們的目標(biāo)只能使我們快樂(lè)一陣子。當(dāng)新的欲望目標(biāo)出現(xiàn)的時(shí)候,這種快樂(lè)就很快過(guò)去了。由下文的the happiness可知答案為A項(xiàng)happy。
11.A 根據(jù)第10題分析可知答案為A項(xiàng)when,引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句。
12.D 前文“Joy is a lifelong aspect of our inner selves”可知,快樂(lè)是存在于我們內(nèi)心世界,伴隨我們一生的不可或缺的一部分。由此可知,這里應(yīng)該選擇D項(xiàng)separate from“與……分離”,意思是快樂(lè)在任何時(shí)候都不能與我們分離。A項(xiàng)“對(duì)……有吸引力”;B項(xiàng)“對(duì)……重要”;C項(xiàng)“與……不同”。
13.A 我們沒(méi)有必要四處尋找,也不必去想象它只存在于別人體內(nèi)。A項(xiàng)“存在”;B項(xiàng)“等待”;C項(xiàng)“開(kāi)始”;D項(xiàng)“斗爭(zhēng),奮斗”。答案為A項(xiàng)。
14.C 根據(jù)前文“Joy is a lifelong aspect of our inner selves”可知,快樂(lè)是我們自身?yè)碛械臇|西,所以答案為C項(xiàng)have“有,擁有”。A項(xiàng)“停止,放棄,推出”;B項(xiàng)“滿足,遇見(jiàn)”;D項(xiàng)“錯(cuò)過(guò),想念”。
15.A 由第一段最后一句可知此處答案為guidance“指導(dǎo),指引,向?qū)А薄?/P>
16.C 在實(shí)現(xiàn)自我的路上,當(dāng)我們不知道該走哪條路和希望有人指引的時(shí)候,我們應(yīng)該求助于我們自己。答案為C項(xiàng)。
17.A 起初我們可能不知道正確的答案,但我們只需問(wèn)一下,順其自然并耐心等待,答案就會(huì)出現(xiàn)。A項(xiàng)“找到,發(fā)現(xiàn)”;B項(xiàng)“猜測(cè)”;C項(xiàng)“要求,需要”;D項(xiàng)“證明,證實(shí)”。答案為A項(xiàng)。
18.B 根據(jù)上文及第17題分析可知答案為B項(xiàng)。A項(xiàng)“結(jié)果”;B項(xiàng)“回答,答案”;C項(xiàng)“解釋”;D項(xiàng)“機(jī)會(huì),可能性”。
19.A 在這個(gè)過(guò)程中,只要我們更多地練習(xí),并相信它,那么我們就會(huì)越來(lái)越少地向外界尋求指導(dǎo),因?yàn)槲覀円呀?jīng)成功地轉(zhuǎn)變成為自己的老師和向?qū)Я恕項(xiàng)“相信,信任”;B項(xiàng)“討厭,厭煩”;C項(xiàng)“忽視,不理睬”;D項(xiàng)“渴望,要求,欲望”。答案為A項(xiàng)。

1.A 人們普遍接受每天要喝大約八杯水這一觀點(diǎn),故此處用well表示“很好地(接受)”。
2.C 平時(shí)人們說(shuō)的每天喝的大約八杯水一般不包括我們的食物和其他飲料中所含有的水分,故此處用in addition to表示“除了……外(還有)”。
3.D 人們已被告知水的功能,及水“如何(how)”可以改進(jìn)我們的身體健康。
4.B 根據(jù)常識(shí),幾天不喝水,人便會(huì)死亡,故用in days表示“在幾天內(nèi)”。
5.C 根據(jù)后面一句的說(shuō)明可知,作者認(rèn)為該句所說(shuō)明的情況是“合理的(reasonable)”。
6.B 人在缺水的情況時(shí)對(duì)身體有害,故人的水合作用一定得好。
7.B 此處的it指代前面的hydration,好的水合作用可以保護(hù)皮膚,幫助人們思考,也“減少(reduce)”人們生病的危險(xiǎn)。
8.C 更多地喝水可以保護(hù)皮膚,幫助人們放松,讓人們注意力“集中(concentration)”。
9.A 此處作者話鋒一轉(zhuǎn)提出一個(gè)與前面相反的觀點(diǎn),故此處應(yīng)選A項(xiàng),表示“喝太多的水是否有危險(xiǎn)?”
10.A 由后面It’s sold可知,此處用A選項(xiàng)表示“免費(fèi)的”。
11.C 公司對(duì)于飲用多少水只是“推薦(recommend)”。
12.D 公司只是推薦,故它的合理性就應(yīng)該受到質(zhì)疑,即此處作者質(zhì)疑“有理由認(rèn)為它(每天喝兩到三升的水)是正確的嗎?”
13.A 在“熱的(warm)”氣候條件下干體力活應(yīng)該多喝水。
14.B 即上面所說(shuō)的那些人們所需要的水應(yīng)該“包含(contain)”在食物、酒或其他的飲料中,即并非都是通過(guò)喝水的方式來(lái)攝取。
15.A 過(guò)多增加水“可能(could)”對(duì)人們有害。
16.D 后面部分是說(shuō)明前面情況的原因,故用because。
17.D 喝水少,則我們會(huì)感到“渴(thirsty)”。
18.B 人們喝水少則會(huì)感到渴,然后會(huì)補(bǔ)充水。水的需求的控制就像對(duì)氧氣的“吸收(intake)”一樣。
19.C 作者把喝水和吸入氧氣進(jìn)行了類比,由后面的對(duì)吸入氧氣的說(shuō)明可知,此處用ask for,表示“需要”。
20.A 由破折號(hào)后面的說(shuō)明可知,像大多數(shù)事情一樣,水也是如此,要有個(gè)“極限的(limited)”量,不要太少,也不要太多。
